The story
Fishers began as a project led by Andrew Heald. After early experiments distilling at Adnams (2015), the first official batch of Fishers Original was produced in 2016. The distillery grew as a family-run operation on the Aldeburgh coast, later developing variations of the original recipe and local collaborations.
Production philosophy
To capture the character of the Suffolk coast through the use of foraged local botanicals. Production favors artisanal methods, small volumes and a close relationship with the marine environment and local traditions.
Territory
Suffolk coast, Aldeburgh (United Kingdom).
Production method
London Dry gin produced in small batches. Botanicals are macerated in the base spirit overnight; final distillation takes place in a hand-built copper still; the 'one-shot' method is used and the 'heart' of the distillate is selected.
